Skype is killing long distance, one minute at a time — Broadband News and Analysis

Skype is killing long distance, one minute at a time — Broadband News and Analysis:

If all of Skype’s on-net traffic had been routed via phone companies, global cross-border telephone traffic would have grown 13 percent in 2011, remaining in line with historical growth rates.”

The question is why so few people use Skype, not why so many people do. I'm surprised long distance has not collapsed.
